Best explanation I have heard for removing it. There have been fights over which side of the altar it should be on but never about removing it. That would have been worthy of the conversation. Thank you, my brother!
I’m glad you brought this up. I’ve always wondered why the American flag was there, and thought it strange or inappropriate. Nobody ever had an answer as to why it was there, only that some people had a strong opinion about its presence. If they heard your commentary, they might see things in a different light.
Thank you Meshach for posting this message. Thank you speaking out on one of the inappropriate actions by this President. Thank you for the clarity of your purpose and words.
Excellent post. Not a popular opinion, but spot on. Mixing nationalism and the Kingdom of God has always seemed misguided to me. Did you ever get push-back when you asked the flag be removed from churches where you were invited to preach?

Thank you, Linda
Thanks for this entry. The flag is in conflict with other symbols.

Thanks Tim, I’ve only pushed the issue when I was being appointed as a new pastor. If I’m just a guest preacher I don’t force the issue.
Thank you!!! I have felt this for years but didn’t have the words in order to articulate the feelings.
So glad to see this brought up! I've always believed this and you give a very clear explanation!
